<p>Popular email services provider (ESP) Mailchimp has released its <a target="_blank" title="MailChimp Blog - Major Email Provider Trends in 2015: Gmail&#39;s Lead Increases" href="http://blog.mailchimp.com/major-email-provider-trends-in-2015-gmail-takes-a-really-big-lead/">latest figures</a> on how many messages it sends to major clients.</p>
<p>Through analyzing more than 81 billion emails so far from 2015, the ESP deduced that Gmail use is up 70 percent in the last year while AOL and Comcast are up 31 percent. Another interesting finding is the difference in the amount of Gmail messages sent compared to the amount of emails to Hotmail accounts. When MailChimp performed a similar look at their numbers in July 2012, it found that Gmail accounts received more than 100 more emails than Hotmail users. However, when MailChimp looked at the numbers this July, it found that the difference was closer to 1.8 billion emails. </p>

According to the site, &quot;<i>the feedback loop (FBL) will forward any mail reported as spam originating from the associated IP addresses back to the listed email address</i>.&quot; Comcast recommends the use of a dedicated e-mail address for this purpose.<br /><br />A feedback loop is a system used by ISPs (Internet Service Providers) that notifies message senders that one of their subscribers has reported that email as spam (often through the &#39;report spam&#39; button through a client&#39;s email interface). The benefits for senders are that 1) they can identify which customers no longer want to receive email, and 2) become able to diagnose problems originating from their networks, such as virus-infected spam-producing machines.&nbsp; <br /><div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://www.websitemagazine.com/content/aggbug.aspx?PostID=5445" width="1" height="1">marketingemail marketingemailcomcastfeedback
